Martin (John Amplas), a young man who looks around 20-years-old, boards a train in Indianapolis, Indiana for New York. At night, he breaks into a sleeping car and sedates a woman with a syringe full of narcotics. She struggles, but he tells her not to struggle or be upset because she wont feel pain. After a few minutes, the woman falls asleep, and Martin has sex with the unconscious woman. Afterwards, he slices her wrists with a razor blade so he can drink her blood. The woman bleeds to death in her sleep.
In the morning, the train stops in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania where Martin disembarks. He is met by Tata Cuda (Lincoln Maazel) an elderly and hostile old man who claims to be his cousin from the Old World. Together, they travel by another train to the town of Braddock, a dying industrial suburb. They walk to Cuda's large house where he shows Martin his living quarters. Cuda then accuses Martin of being an 84-year-old vampire from his old country. He has taken in Martin because he is family, but tells him, "First I will save your soul. Then I shall destroy you." Martin denies being a vampire and implies that Cuda is merely his uncle rather than his cousin. Cuda then puts up strings of garlic on the doors to his and his granddaughter's room, and then holds up a small cross when Martin approaches him. Martin takes away the cross, and even takes a bite of the garlic mocking these attempts by saying bitterly, "There's no real magic... ever". Cuda tells Martin that he can come and go as he pleases. But he also warns Martin that he will kill him if he kills anyone in Braddock. He also tells Martin to stay away from his granddaughter Christine (Christine Forrest), whom arrives home from her job that evening.
Cuda introduces Christine to Martin, but also warns her to stay away from him. But Christine instead strikes up a friendship with Martin who confides in her about his vampire heritage. When Cuda later confirms Martin's claims to be a vampire, Christine, not surprisingly, refuses to believe either one. She thinks that Cuda and the other members of her family have driven Martin to insanity by making him think that he is a vampire. It is never revealed if Martin really is a vampire, or just a shy and lonely youth with troubled issues. Christine is the only person that Martin gets the courage to talk to. When Christine's boyfriend Arthur (Tom Savini) arrives at the house for dinner, Martin stops talking and backs away despite Arthur's attempt at a conversation. Christine later confides in Martin that she hopes to leave Braddock someday with Arthur, even though Martin points out that Arthur treats her badly and is both verbally and physically abusive towards her.
When Christine sees that Martin won't talk to anyone else, she buys him a phone which he installs in his room. Martin begins to repeatingly call a radio talk show where he describes what it's like to be a vampire. He becomes known on the radio as "the Count" to all the listeners. But the patronizing host (Michael Gornick) thinks he's just crazy.
Martin gets a job at Cuda's grocery store of stocking shelves, hauling boxes around, and even gets to be a delivery boy for some of the customers. One of his customers is a certain Abby Santini (Elyane Nadeau), who becomes taken in with Martin. She is a very friendly young woman who is depressed when she tells Martin that her husband is unfaithful. But Martin still does not have the nerve to talk with her, so she is happy to have someone to confide in with her life problems. Martin phones the radio show host to describe his infatuation with the housewife and senses that she wants to have sex with him. When the radio show host asks Martin if it is a sexual problem that he has involving women criticizing him during sex, Martin replies that he has never had sex with a woman who was awake.
One day, Martin travels by train to outside Braddock to look for victims. At a supermarket, he follows a young woman (Sarah Venable) home to her posh suburban house. He sees the woman's husband (Richard Rubenstein) leave for a long business trip, and Martin decides this would be the right time for more feeding. Martin returns to the house after dark and breaks in through the garage door. But it is Martin who gets the surprise when he bursts into her bedroom to find her in bed with her adulterous lover Lewis (Al Levitsky). After a vicious struggle, Martin jabs both of them with hyprodermic needles with narcotics, and waits for the drugs to take affect. He drags the unconscious body of Lewis from the house to a clump of trees across the street where he kills him by shoving a broken tree branch into his neck and drinks his blood. Martin returns to the house where he has sex with the unconscious woman. But out of compassion and pity, he decides to let her live.
Martin begins to have romantic monochrome visions of his vampire past (real or imagined), where he drained blood from a young woman and was chased through the streets of a nameless European town by a torch-lit mob.
During one Sunday at church, Cuda brings home Father Howard (George A. Romero) who asks him about the possibility of exorcism and demon possession. Father Howard calls upon the elderly Father Zulemans (Clifford Forrest, Jr.) over at Cuda's request. Together, Cuda and Zulemans confront Martin his bedroom and attempt to perform an exorcism on him. At this point, Martin remembers (another real or imaginary flashback), in the Old Country of people trying to perform an exorcism on him, and he flees them. Martin then flees from Cuda and Zuelmas as well. A little later that night, Martin terrorizes Cuda in a children's playground when he puts on a Dracula cape and puts false fangs into his mouth to pretend that he really is a vampire.
One day, Martin finally musters the courage to talk with Mrs. Santini during a routine delivery to her house where he tells her that he's aware of her attempts to seduce him and wants now to have sex with her. After having sex for the first time, Mrs. Santini becomes more depressed for she tells Martin that her husband just left her because she discovered that she cannot bear children, and that her desires towards him are based on sex and nothing else. But Martin wants to stay with her and help her move on with her life. Martin tells the radio show host about his affair with the housewife and that he no longer has the urge to attack other women.
Meanwhile, Arthur meets with Cuda and tells him that he wants Christine to leave town with him so they can get married and start a family. But Christine becomes angry at Cuda when he tells Arthur that insanity runs in their family and he shouldn't consider having children with her. Shortly afterwards, Christine packs up and leaves Braddock for New York with Arthur despite Martin telling her that Arthur is abusive towards her. But her mind is made up. Before leaving, Christine tells Martin that she really has no ill feelings towards him and just wants to make a fresh start with her life. She says goodbye to him and promises to write. But Martin knows that with an abusive and possessive man in Christine's life, she probably won't.
Depressed over losing his one true friend, Martin phones the radio show host and tells him that he's getting "shaky" and wants to go out looking for more victims. That night, Martin travels to a rough crime-ridden area of Pittsburgh and attacks two derelicts in a alley, injecting them with narcotics. He kills one of them by silting the bum's wrist and drinking his blood. Martin is about to kill the second one when a police car shows up and gives chase. Martin narrowly escapes during a long chase on foot which leads from the garbage strew streets and through a local store. Martin runs into an old warehouse where a drug deal is going down. A shootout between the two cops and the three thugs begins where all of them are killed, leaving Martin as the sole survivor who casually walks away from the carnage.
One day, Martin finds Mrs. Santini dead in her bathtub, after she had slit her writs with a razor blade. Martin anonymously calls the police to report the body and leaves. He phones the radio show host one final time to say that he really doesn't need friends or people to talk to for he is his own person. But when Cuda learns about Mrs. Santini's suicide, is mistakenly thinks Martin killed her and made it look like a suicide as he's done before. Cuda walks into Martin's room while he is asleep and kills him by hammering a wooden stake through Martin's heart.
Cuda buries Martin's body in his back garden, while over the closing credits various voices from people are heard talking to the radio show host asking the whereabouts of "the Count".
虽然和某部分TV版剧情一样，但还是蛮好看的，寓教于乐挺好的
为上美影加油！不错的儿童电影，传递遵老价值观！
前半部分就几乎是库存，很多画面和台词都在剧版出现过。但后半段还是挺好看的，毕竟我爱张小丽…
有没可能恶魔通过控制人类迫使他们在特定的纬度建造通往地狱的桥梁，但是为什么要念数，总的来说氛围的渲染还是可以，但是总体剧情衔接不是很到位
放到普通剧集里大概会让我觉得是还不错的一集，但作为特辑总会期待特别些的东西，毕竟这个循环也太老套了…感情线出来着实震惊，而且和这集气氛环境也不搭，是很大一个扣分点。虽然百合我的菜，但拜托cc你写感情线之前先把人物精细刻画下啊，不要整天让主角担任工具人，然后在前线随便搞一些铺垫就以为这样的发展就显得顺理成章水到渠成！（每年都喊着弃剧的我居然又老老实实补回来了，这都是对RTD的爱啊！）
真的看睡着了，图图真的是我小时候唯爱的动画片，现在怎么zzzq哪哪都是
3.5 不好看 剧情上是和tv版重制了吗 为什么不认识牛爷爷了
片尾曲响起来的那一刻，身边的老阿姨们忍不住一起欢呼鼓掌，那是抹不掉的童年声音。
怎么说呢……跑着跑着突然停下来谈情，屏幕差点都被我捏爆了…………
3.5 "We try, it doesn't work, we try again, we learn, we improve, we fail again, but, better....We get it wrong again, we improve..." What Chibnall been saying to encourage himself throughout his run
冲着一个片段看的一个片，最后发现全片也就那一个片段最出彩，弱爆了
为上美影加油！不错的儿童电影，传递遵老价值观！
预告即全部…不想说什么了，从小看图图动画片长大的，为了所谓情怀去看，结果全篇基本炒冷饭，复刻动画片情节，霸王龙小分队也只是一个没什么用处的名词罢了。立意一般般，情节很烂，最后葫芦娃小邋遢黑马警长主题曲出来小小惊喜，但是掩盖不了糊弄的本质😅花了20去看儿歌串烧和看过无数次的动画片…没看过图图的小孩去看看吧，毕竟现在动画片更烂，为了情怀去的慎重💦
可能不是我这个年龄段看的了，在电影院睡着了😓
好难看，陪8岁儿子看的，好想离场，好尬，片里居然在用座机电话，现在有多少家庭还在用？在这里，孩子搞恶作剧居然是可爱的，值得表扬？妈妈把牛爷爷妖魔化来吓孩子，让孩子听话？感觉里面的育儿观还停留在30-40年前！好糟心！不心疼几十块的票钱，只为编剧和制作方一心圈钱的做法心寒啊！
有好有坏吧只能说，就图图这个形象来说，当时是喜欢的，小时候就很爱看。
看得出想主打爱情牌（毕竟新年前夜还在看剧的大概率是单身狗？），但是毫无火花和cp感的路人男女都能在time loop里终成眷属，Yaz和博士从S13E00开始的七集化学反应外加本集Dan的助攻，竟等不来《土拨鼠之日》的结局，编剧你最好后续有个合理交代。这次还得骂导演：弱爆了且土爆了，拍不出紧张感不说，360度回旋怼脸就为轮流一句“agree”还是个潦草失败的计划我真是谢谢你啊。
to many chat chat.Dan真实小天使，但是剧情真的没有新意，人物处理也是差强人意，RTD你快回来吧。
确实是小时候的故事重制版，但也很快乐。感觉回到了小时候的时光😭。
其實我覺得還可以啊？五星全給13跟Yaz😭😭 最後看煙火那裡，13你肯定對Yaz也有感覺的對吧😭😭😭
